A.M. Kuchling added the comment: I mention urllib because, as noted earlier in the discussion, code that fetches resources over HTTP should really be caching (looking at the Expires header, sending an ETag and an If-Modified-Since header, etc.). It's difficult for us to add these features to the urllib/urllib2 APIs, so we should make users aware of other libraries that provide these features, so that users will use such a library instead of just writing to the lower-level APIs provided with Python.
